OASE91

Building atmosphere

2013

Abstract

“What do we mean when we speak of architectural quality? It is a question that I have little difficulty in answering. Quality
in architecture … is to me when a building manages to move
me. What on earth is it that moves me? How can I get it into
my own work? … How do people design things with such a
beautiful, natural presence, things that move me every single
time. One word for it is Atmosphere.” — Peter Zumthor.
